Abstract Background Cancer cachexia is associated with a poor prognosis. This study aimed to investigate the association between sarcopenia and survival in patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. Methods We retrospectively evaluated 197 patients diagnosed with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer in our department and its affiliated institution between January 2008 and December 2015. Sarcopenia was diagnosed according to the sex-specific consensus definition. Castration-resistance prostate cancer-free survival, cancer-specific survival and overall survival from the metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer diagnoses were calculated using the Kaplan–Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. Risk factors affecting the survival outcomes were analyzed using the Cox proportional regression analysis. Results In total, 163 patients (82.7%) had sarcopenia. Cancer-specific survival and overall survival were significantly shorter in sarcopenic patients than in non-sarcopenic patients (median cancer-specific survival: 77.0 months vs. not reached, P = 0.0099; overall survival: 72.0 months vs. not reached, P = 0.0465), whereas castration-resistance prostate cancer-free survival did not significantly differ between the groups (P = 0.6063). Multivariate analyses showed that sarcopenia was an independent factor for cancer-specific survival (hazard ratio: 2.18, P = 0.0451), together with the Gleason score (hazard ratio: 1.87, P = 0.0272) and LATITUDE risk classification (hazard ratio: 2.73, P = 0.0008). Moreover, the prognostic association of sarcopenia was remarkable in patients aged <73.0 years (cancer-specific survival: 82.0 months vs. not reached, P = 0.0027; overall survival: 72.0 months vs. not reached, P = 0.0078 in sarcopenic vs. non-sarcopenic patients), whereas the association was not significant in patients aged ≥73.0 years (cancer-specific survival: 76.0 and 75.0 months, respectively, P = 0.7879; overall survival: 67.0 and 52.0 months, respectively, P = 0.7263). Conclusion Sarcopenia was an independent risk factor of cancer-specific survival in patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, especially in younger patients.

145 Background: Studies are conflicting regarding the association between statin use and biochemical recurrence after surgery or radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer. A handful of studies have observed favorable associations between statins and prostate cancer-specific (PCSM) and overall mortality (OS), however, this has not been studied in an advanced disease cohort nor has the combination of statins and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) been specifically studied. Methods: Patients with PSA >3 ng/mL after >1 year following primary or salvage radiotherapy (RT) were enrolled in a randomized trial of intermittent (IAD) vs. continuous (CAD) ADT (NCT00003653). Statin use at baseline and during the study was captured and modeled as a time-dependent covariate. The primary end-point was OS. Models were adjusted for age, time from RT to ADT and PSA at baseline. As results were nearly identical between the IAD and CAD arms they are reported as aggregates unless otherwise indicated. Results: Of 1,364 patients enrolled, 585 (43%) reported statin use during the study. Statin users were younger (72.7 vs. 73.8, p=0.001) and less likely to have PSA >15 (20 vs. 25%, p=0.04). Median follow-up was 6.9 years and 524 deaths occurred. Statin use was associated with a reduced risk of overall death (HR: 0.64; 95% C.I. 0.53 – 0.78, p<0.001) and PCSM (HR: 0.64, 95% C.I. 0.48 – 0.86, p=0.003). Statin users had 14% longer time to castration resistance but this did not reach statistical significance (p=0.15). In the IAD arm, statin users had more off-treatment intervals (p=0.04) and longer time off-treatment (median: 0.85 vs. 0.64 years, p=0.06). Across 6 functional domains, statin users reported better quality of life scores. Conclusions: In men treated with ADT following primary or salvage RT, statin use was associated with improved overall and prostate cancer-specific survival and improved quality of life. In patients treated with IAD, statin use was associated with more off-treatment intervals and longer time off-treatment. A prospective trial of statins in men commencing ADT is warranted to confirm this observation.

The development of castration resistance is an inevitable pathway for the vast majority of patients with advanced prostate cancer. Recently, there have been significant breakthroughs in the understanding and management options of castration-resistant prostate cancer. Three novel hormonal agents showed survival benefits in non-metastatic patients. As for metastatic disease, there was an even wider range of management options being investigated. This review summarized advances in the management of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) including emerging data on novel imaging techniques and treatment strategies.

162 Background: Germline variations in genes involved in androgen biosynthesis and metabolic pathways may predict time to response to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in advanced prostate cancer, serve as prognostic and predictive biomarkers, and guide towards more individualized upfront therapy. Methods: 47 polymorphisms (PMs) in 22 genes involved in the androgen metabolic pathway were investigated using tagging SNPs for association with time to onset of castration resistance in 144 Caucasian men diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer undergoing ADT. Linear regression was employed using Gleason score as a covariate and assessing each SNP under one of three genetic models: 1) an additive model in which the number of minor alleles contributes increasing risk (or protection), 2) a dominant model in which the presence of 1 or 2 minor alleles have the same effect, and 3) a recessive model in which the presence of 2 minor alleles are necessary. Results: PMs in 3 genes (CYP1A1, HSD17B3, and HSD17B12) were significantly associated with time to prostate cancer recurrence after medical castration while controlling for Gleason Score. Table summarizes the genes found to be significantly associated with time to recurrence and the modes of inheritance considered. (Only SNPs found to be nominally significant (p < .05) either with or without controlling for Gleason score in at least one model are shown.) Conclusions: In this preliminary report of ongoing work, germ line variations in multiple genes in the sex steroid hormone metabolic pathway predicted time to response to ADT, and warrant further validation to define their role as prognostic and predictive markers in this setting.

The incidence of prostate cancer is gradually increasing. There are many methods for clinical treatment of prostate cancer, such as surgical treatment and endocrine treatment. In the case of advanced prostate cancer, we must not only extend patients’ survival times but also enhance their quality of life. Endocrine medications are the most effective therapy for advanced prostate cancer. This research will investigate the therapeutic impact of a complete treatment model in prostate cancer in order to discover a trustworthy clinical treatment model. This research discovered that, as compared to endocrine treatment, radical resection of prostate cancer may diminish and reach lower serum PSA levels in a short amount of time, as well as sustain low PSA levels and delay progression to castration resistance. Moreover, the comprehensive treatment mode can effectively reduce the possibility of complications. The research results show that the comprehensive treatment model can play an important role in the treatment of prostate cancer.
